Custodian Of The GT-R Promises It Will Be Will Be “What The Customers Want”

Nissan GT-R chief product specialist Hiroshi Tamura doesn’t appear to be in a rush to replace the current model and is the latest in a line of execs claiming that both electric and autonomous technologies could be featured in the Godzilla’s successor. That, however, is hardly news anymore.

Tamura-san is one of the men responsible for bringing the R35 GT-R to life, and during a recent interview with Digital Trends, he didn’t seem bothered by criticisms that the sports car is now rather long in the tooth.

Better looks. Better interior. Come alive in your hands steering and chassis at all speeds making even trips to the grocery fun.

It desperately needs to not be a $100K machine. The GTR has high capabilities, but it's not the best for the money by any stretch of the imagination.

The Z should base at $27K with a 2.4T/ 240Z / $31K V6 370Z / $35K 560Z V8
The GTR should base at $50K V6T / $60K V6TT / $75K V8T

no electrification for either

Now that Toyota moves Supra downmarket, it's time for Nissan and Honda to work together

Hint: Source MR platform from GM, and equip it with AWD, at least for Nissan
